Meet Steve, the adorable 6-month-old puppy with a goofy smile and tons of potential! Steve spent his early months in a shelter, so he’s still learning the ropes of polite puppy behavior and how to interact with his human friends. Right now, Steve’s a bit of a “mouthy” communicator, meaning he sometimes uses his teeth in ways he shouldn’t—just a puppy thing he’s working on!
Steve would benefit greatly from a doggy sibling who can show him the ropes and help him learn positive social cues. A confident, well-mannered dog would be an ideal role model, guiding Steve on how to play politely and feel more comfortable in his new home. Watching and learning from another dog would help Steve build confidence and reinforce good habits, making the adjustment much easier and more fun. Steve would also thrive with a leader who can help him with socialization, ideally one that’s experienced with puppies or willing to work with a trainer.
With a bit of patience and some guidance, Steve is eager to become a well-mannered, gentle companion. He’s a smart boy, and he responds really well to positive reinforcement (treats are his love language!). If you’re ready for a pup who’s equal parts sweetness and silliness—and up for the rewarding journey of teaching him the ropes—Steve could be the perfect match for you!
